Year 9 Edexcel 会计课程为商业语言打下坚实基础。本课程带你入门基本原则，从会计等式到期末财务报表的编制。到学年结束时，你将能够运用复式记账法记录交易，并理解财务报表是如何构建的。
1. Introduction to Accounting | 会计概论
Accounting is the systematic process of recording, classifying, and summarising financial transactions. Its primary purpose is to provide information that helps users, such as managers and investors, make informed economic decisions.
会计是系统地记录、分类和汇总财务交易的过程。其主要目的是为管理者、投资者等信息使用者提供信息，帮助他们做出明智的经济决策。
There are two main branches: financial accounting, which focuses on external reporting, and management accounting, which aids internal planning. In Year 9, we concentrate on financial accounting principles that underpin all further study.
会计有两大分支：侧重于对外报告的财务会计，以及辅助内部规划的管理会计。在 Year 9 阶段，我们集中学习所有后续学习所依赖的财务会计原理。
2. The Accounting Equation | 会计等式
Everything in accounting revolves around one simple equation. It shows that a business’s resources are financed by debts and the owner’s investment.
会计中的一切都围绕着一个简单的等式展开。它表明企业的资源是由债务和所有者投入共同融资的。
Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity
资产 = 负债 + 所有者权益
Assets include items such as cash, inventory, and equipment. Liabilities are obligations like bank loans and trade payables. The equation must always balance, meaning every transaction has a dual effect. For example, if you buy a vehicle with cash, one asset increases while another decreases, so the total is unchanged.
资产包括现金、存货和设备等项目。负债是银行贷款和应付账款等义务。该等式必须始终保持平衡，这意味着每笔交易都有双重影响。例如，用现金购买车辆，一项资产增加而另一项资产减少，因此总额不变。
3. Double-Entry Bookkeeping Principles | 复式记账原理
Double-entry bookkeeping is the method that keeps the accounting equation in balance. Every transaction is recorded twice: as a debit (Dr) in one account and as a credit (Cr) in another.
复式记账法是保持会计等式平衡的方法。每笔交易都被记录两次：在一个账户中记作借方 (Dr)，在另一个账户中记作贷方 (Cr)。
The rules for debits and credits depend on the type of account. Assets and expenses increase on the debit side and decrease on the credit side. Liabilities, owner’s equity, and income increase on the credit side and decrease on the debit side.
借记和贷记的规则取决于账户类型。资产和费用在借方增加，在贷方减少。负债、所有者权益和收入在贷方增加，在借方减少。
For instance, when a business receives cash from a customer, we debit the Cash account (asset increase) and credit the Sales Revenue account (income increase). This dual recording ensures the trial balance will always have equal debit and credit totals if entries are correct.
例如，当企业从客户收到现金时，我们借记现金账户（资产增加）并贷记销售收入账户（收入增加）。这种双重记录确保如果分录正确，试算平衡表中的借方总额与贷方总额始终相等。
4. Source Documents | 原始凭证
Source documents are the original records that provide evidence of a financial transaction. They are the starting point for all accounting entries and must be kept to verify the figures in the books.
原始凭证是提供财务交易证据的原始记录。它们是一切会计分录的起点，必须保存以核实账簿中的数据。
Common source documents include purchase invoices, which show goods bought on credit; sales invoices, issued when credit sales are made; receipts, confirming cash has been received; and credit notes, which reduce amounts owed when goods are returned.
常见的原始凭证包括：显示赊购货物的采购发票；发生赊销时开出的销售发票；确认已收到现金的收据；以及当退货时减少欠款金额的贷项通知单。
Each document contains key details such as date, amounts, names of the parties, and a unique reference number. Before recording anything, an accountant must always examine the relevant source document to ensure accuracy.
每一份凭证都包含关键细节，如日期、金额、交易方名称和唯一编号。在记录任何事项之前，会计师必须始终检查相关的原始凭证以确保准确。
5. Recording in the Books of Prime Entry | 原始账簿的记录
Before transactions enter the main ledger, they are first grouped and recorded in books of prime entry. These books summarise similar transactions to make the bookkeeping process more efficient.
在交易进入总分类账之前，它们首先被分组记录在原始账簿中。这些账簿汇总同类交易，使簿记过程更高效。
The main books of prime entry are the Sales Day Book (for credit sales), Purchases Day Book (for credit purchases), Cash Book (for all cash and bank transactions), and the General Journal (for transactions that do not fit elsewhere, such as corrections).
主要的原始账簿有：销售日记账（记录赊销）、采购日记账（记录赊购）、现金日记账（记录所有现金和银行交易）以及普通日记账（用于记录其他无法归类的交易，如更正分录）。
For example, a credit sale of 500 pounds to a customer would first be recorded in the Sales Day Book before the individual entries are posted to the customer’s account in the sales ledger and to the sales account in the general ledger.
例如，向某客户赊销 500 镑，会先记录在销售日记账中，随后再分别过账到销售分类账中的客户账户和总分类账中的销售账户。
6. The Ledger and T-Accounts | 分类账与T型账户
The ledger is the main collection of accounts, where all transactions are finally posted. A T-account is a simplified representation of an account, shaped like the letter 'T', with a left (debit) side and a right (credit) side.
分类账是账户的主要集合，所有交易最终都过账至此。T型账户是账户的简化表示，形似字母 'T'，左侧为借方，右侧为贷方。
To record a transaction in a T-account, you write the date and amount on the appropriate side. The account name goes at the top. At any time, the balance of the account is the difference between the total debits and total credits.
要在T型账户中记录交易，你需要在相应一侧写上日期和金额。账户名称写在顶部。任何时候，账户余额就是借方总额与贷方总额之间的差额。
For an asset account like Cash, increases are debited and decreases are credited. We can therefore track exactly how much cash the business has available at any point by examining its T-account.
对于像现金这样的资产账户，增加记借方，减少记贷方。因此，通过查看其T型账户，我们可以准确追踪企业在任何时点拥有的可用现金数额。
7. Balancing Off Accounts and the Trial Balance | 结平账户与试算平衡表
At the end of a period, each ledger account is balanced off. This means we calculate the balance (the difference between the two sides) and carry it down as the opening balance for the next period.
在一个期间结束时，每个分类账账户要结平。这意味着我们计算余额（借贷两方的差额），并将其结转作为下一期的期初余额。
A trial balance is then prepared by listing all the account balances with their debit or credit nature. The total of debit balances must equal the total of credit balances if the double-entry has been correctly applied. This does not guarantee there are no errors, but it confirms the arithmetic accuracy.
然后，编制一张试算平衡表，列出所有账户余额及其借方或贷方属性。如果复式记账运用正确，借方余额总额必须等于贷方余额总额。这虽不能保证完全没有错误，但能验证计算上的准确性。
If a trial balance does not balance, common errors might include recording only one side of a transaction, posting different amounts to the debit and credit, or making an arithmetic mistake in an account. The discrepancy must be investigated and corrected via a suspense account if necessary.
如果试算平衡表不平，常见错误可能包括只记录了一笔交易的单方面、借贷方金额不同、或账户发生计算错误。必须对差异进行调查，必要时通过暂记账户进行更正。
8. The Income Statement | 利润表
The income statement shows whether a business has made a profit or loss over a period. It is divided into two parts: the trading account (which calculates gross profit) and the profit and loss account (which calculates net profit).
利润表显示企业在一段时期内是盈利还是亏损。它分为两部分：营业账户（计算毛利）和损益账户（计算净利润）。
Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold
毛利 = 销售收入 - 销售成本
Cost of goods sold includes opening inventory plus purchases minus closing inventory. Once gross profit is found, we deduct operating expenses (such as rent, wages, and utilities) to arrive at net profit.
销售成本包括期初存货加采购减期末存货。得出毛利后，我们再扣除经营费用（如租金、工资和水电费），从而得出净利润。
Understanding the income statement helps students see how revenue and expenses flow through a business. Even at Year 9 level, being able to construct a simple income statement from a given trial balance is a key skill.
理解利润表有助于学生了解收入与费用在企业的流动。即使在 Year 9 水平，能够根据给定的试算平衡表编制简单的利润表也是一项关键技能。
9. The Statement of Financial Position | 财务状况表（资产负债表）
The statement of financial position, often called the balance sheet, presents the business’s assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity at a specific date. It directly reflects the accounting equation.
财务状况表，通常称为资产负债表，展示企业在某一特定日期的资产、负债和所有者权益。它直接反映了会计等式。
Assets are classified as non-current (long-term, like machinery) and current (short-term, like inventory and trade receivables). Liabilities are similarly split into non-current (long-term loans) and current (overdrafts, trade payables).
资产分为非流动资产（长期资产，如机器设备）和流动资产（短期资产，如存货和应收账款）。负债同样分为非流动负债（长期贷款）和流动负债（透支、应付账款）。
Owner’s equity represents the owner’s stake in the business. It is usually made up of the opening capital, plus any net profit (or minus net loss), less drawings made by the owner. A correctly drawn balance sheet will always balance because every resource is financed by either liability or equity.
所有者权益代表所有者在企业中的权益。它通常由期初资本加上净利润（或减去净亏损），再减去所有者提款构成。一份绘制正确的资产负债表总是会平衡的，因为每一项资源都是由负债或权益融资的。
10. Fundamental Accounting Concepts | 基本会计概念
To ensure financial statements are useful and reliable, accountants follow a set of concepts. These are the ground rules applied when preparing accounts.
为确保财务报表有用且可靠，会计师遵循一套概念。这些是编制账目时所应用的基本规则。
Key concepts include the going concern assumption (the business will continue operating), consistency (using the same methods from year to year), prudence (not overstating assets or income), and accruals (recording revenue and expenses when earned or incurred, not just when cash is received or paid).
主要概念包括持续经营假设（企业将继续运营）、一致性（各年使用相同方法）、谨慎性（不高估资产或收入）以及权责发生制（收入和费用在其实现或发生时确认，而不只是现金收付时）。
Another important idea is the separate entity concept, which treats the business as distinct from its owner. This means the owner’s personal transactions are kept completely separate from the business records. These concepts will recur throughout your accounting journey and are essential for interpreting financial information correctly.
另一个重要概念是会计主体概念，即将企业视为独立于所有者的主体。这意味着所有者的个人交易与商业记录完全分开。这些概念将贯穿你的会计学习之旅，对于正确解读财务信息至关重要。
